Become better acquainted with Wind Cave National Park. Evening campfire talks are presented nightly during the summer at the Elk Mountain Campground amphitheater. Topics may include wildlife, plants, geology, park management, and history. The programs last about 45 minutes.

Campfire programs have ended for the season. They will resume in June, 2010.
Natural Entrance of Wind Cave  

Did You Know?
Winds caused by changes in barometric pressure are what give Wind Cave its name. These winds have been measured at the cave's walk-in entrance at over 70 mph. The winds at the natural entrance of the cave attracted the attention of Native Americans and early settlers.
